Problem expiry report - I can see old expired items

Hi all,

I'm using enterprise vault since 3 years.

My custom retention category is 3 years.

On Ev Server Events I can see storage delete process that delete expired items without errors.

Using outlook client and clicking on expiry report button, I think I must see only items that will expired at the most after 60 days, right?

I can see instead items that was expired 30,29,28,.....3,2,1,0 days ago (NOT CORRECTLY) and items that will expired within 60 days (CORRECTLY).

 

Can you help me?

Thanks

As you can see, item was expired 8 days ago.

 

Thanks for your help!

I see. Storage expiry expires items by default based on "Archived Date", which would be 3 Years now (You have EV since 3 Years), so it seems to look fine? Cheers Michel

Yes, it's correct.

I confirm that storage delete task work fine, the issue is only using outlook client.

As you can see on my last topic, I can search and view an expired item (expire 8 days ago).

One important information: I'm using collection method

Ah, now I got it, you can see the items in the archive, but the item already expired. You are not running the Storage Expiry in Report Mode, correct? (-> Site Properties -> Storage Expiry) And your index is OK for this Vault? (-> Archives -> Exchange Mailbox -> -> Properties -> Index Volumes -> "Status" is "Normal"?) What happens when you open up an Item? Does it show normal?

All Indexes is ok.

Storage Expiry is ok! Every time the task start (one time to day) I can see 10,20...,50 expired items deleted.

Hi Everything seems to look normal, I think. Looks like you have to open a case with Symantec, sorry :( Cheers Michel

for your information

the issue depends collections. Until mycollection.cab doesn't recreate, the item and the sql transaction remains on vault and db.

Mycollection.cab recreated after 5% of its items has been deleted.

Regards,

Nicola
